This episode is a special one.I was invited onto The Shuman Show with Drew Shuman, and the conversation went so deep and resonated so strongly that I wanted to bring it here to the Know Your Physio community as well.In this interview, I open up about my own journey, living with ADHD, relying on Adderall, hitting my lowest points, and eventually transforming my mind and my habits through neuroplasticity, sleep optimization, dopamine balance, and consistent, meaningful routines.We explore the science, the practice, and the mindset behind turning ADHD from a liability into an actual superpower. My hope is that by sharing this story, you’ll walk away with practical tools you can use immediately to regulate your nervous system, sharpen your focus, and build a more intentional life.What You’ll Learn1) How I used neuroplasticity to train my brain for clarity and high performance2) What I learned about ADHD, stimulants, dopamine tolerance, and rebuilding attention naturally3) Why deep sleep became the foundation of my mental health and productivity4) The morning and evening routines I still use to regulate my nervous system5) The nutrition and fitness principles that helped me balance my energy and feel grounded6) How sunlight, hydration, and breathwork became non-negotiable performance tools7) The story of how I built Know Your Physio around my strengths, curiosity, and purposeTimestamps00:00 – Intro & my early background03:10 – My ADHD story: childhood, struggle & dependence12:45 – How I discovered neuroplasticity and quit Adderall25:00 – Sleep science, circadian rhythm & dopamine regulation45:30 – My morning ritual: sunlight, hydration, movement1:00:00 – Nutrition, fitness & why potatoes became a secret weapon1:25:00 – Sauna vs cold plunge: what I personally recommend1:40:00 – My takes on caffeine, nicotine & dopamine stacking2:00:00 – Leadership, purpose & building a life with integrityResources MentionedMy Free Sleep Optimization Guidehttps://kyp.gumroad.com/l/sleepSupport the show
